Pimping Practice
« on: April 20, 2014, 05:38:50 AM »
I had 3 fakies who needed pimping, so I decided to practice on two of them before the big day (today, tomorrow, time-zones?!). Here they are in chronological creation order, not order of pride I have in them. -_-

First up is this fella, I made him before the Pimp Yo Fakie competition was announced.
He doesn’t really have a name, unless you count Atrocity?… Atro for short ^.^
I can’t even explain him. Basically I started with the idea of an elephant, but before I got to the ears I went crazy and added tentacles instead, and then pink troll hair, yeeeeeah… It was sort of a technique experiment that went horribly wrong, so I cured and painted before I could make him any more atrocious! I didn't even do anything to his eyes I was so done with him! I still can't decide whether I hate him or if he's grown on me...  :huh:

Next up is someone I’m actually proud of, my Blue-Ringed Octopus pony!
I kind of wish I'd held off making her so I could actually enter her.  :P
I dithered over painting her for a few days, deciding what appearance would look best on her, the debate I had with myself over her eyes was lengthy in itself lol (plus I hate painting). Figuring out how to make 4 legs into 8 tentacles that weren't too big or too small but just right was tricky too... I give up!

I’ve only got one girl left and cannot for the life of my decide what to do with her… hopefully not another Elephant Alien Troll Atrocity. :/

Sorry about the pictures, it’s night and I’m using my phone… and I apparently can’t take a decent picture to save my life anyway lol.

Haha, awesome customs. I love the octopus. Tentafant is not my taste, but very interesting concept. ^^ Great work on both.
